Got a mandate, mentor and a timetable for the seminars! So everything is ready for the thesis. If everything goes as planned I’ll graduate over ½ year before the scheduled time! Ye!
How I did it: Started to do the project very early by good designing and started to sketch the Bachelor at the beginning. Borrowed lot of books from a library about certain subjects. Following the steps of research method helps you to get started and guides you how to proceed in it.
Lessons & tips: Start writing as soon as possible. After you have write a chapter read it through and think is it well formed. Once
you done the Bachelor, read it through, read it through, read it through and read it through once a more.
Resources: Books, school material, pen and paper

Submitted last Friday! Even though this would be a relatively smaller thesis than say… a PhD thesis (at my college, these are considered to be 300+ pages) I believe I’ve written a sufficient thesis to be published one day. A Conference paper perhaps? Now to wait for it to be marked…fingers crossed – 1st class Honours.
It has been done for a while, but I’ve been too busy to update. The grades are in, and it was an A.
... and sadly I’ve been working on it for so long that it can’t be anything less than perfect! Sadly, the perfect becomes the enemy of the good…
Submitted to my advisor and returned to me. The only things I need to change are slight formatting issues. Due on 4/27. Now to figure out how to get 66 pages of information into a 12 minute presentation by Thrusday night!
I will be done in a few days. Last week was intense; this week will not be so intense.
I’ve been at this thing for years. I don’t have a lot left to write, but it seems like an insurmountable wall. I’m plagued with feelings of self doubt and I guess I’m worried that it is not good enough. If I complete it, I might fail. Whereas, if I don’t complete it I might be able to convince myself that if I did complete I might have succeeded. Of course this is bollocks. Not completing equals failure.
All I want to do in life is complete my thesis. At this point I am still working on the Literature Review. Honestly, I have been a procrastinator my whole life and I have always managed to squeek by at the last minute. As of today I will promise to write at least two hours a day. My goal for today is to complete my Lit Review and send it off to my advisor.
My first class of my last class met tonight. An extra elective is required for those who complete a project instead of a thesis. Construction Management has the potential to be interesting. However, it is immediately after work. By the time the class was over, I was starving. A parking ticket awaited me on windsheild of my car. FORTY DOLLARS! This will be contested; some people work and can’t buy a parking pass before the first day of class.
